Get to Know ULTRAcel Q+

ULTRAcel Q+ is a non surgical skin tightening treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target the deeper support layers of the face and neck. It is part of the HIFU family of treatments and is designed to help lift, firm and support the tissue without surgery.

At Ocean Cosmetics in Perth, every ULTRAcel Q+ plan is doctor led. We look at how your face and neck are ageing, where skin feels softer or heavier and how this fits with your wider skin journey and lifestyle.

During treatment, focused ultrasound energy is delivered at precise depths beneath the skin. This creates tiny points of heat in the collagen rich layers and supporting structures. Over time, this can stimulate new collagen and tissue tightening so the face and neck feel more supported, while still looking like you.

ULTRAcel Q+ treatments are usually part of a structured plan. In many cases it is combined with other skin and device treatments to support texture, tone and overall skin health as you age.

Treatable Concerns

Helps support skin that feels softer or less firm along the cheeks, jawline or neck.

Can assist in defining the jawline by targeting heaviness in the lower face in suitable candidates.

May improve the look of fullness under the chin as part of a contouring plan.

Supports collagen in deeper layers, which can help soften fine lines and mild crepiness over time.

In selected clients, can assist with a subtle lifting effect around the brow and upper face.

Ideal for

This treatment is ideal for people noticing early to moderate laxity along the lower face, jawline or neck and for clients who feel their features look a little heavier or less defined but are not ready for surgery. It suits those who want a tightening focused treatment to complement skincare and other non surgical options, are comfortable with gradual results over months and are open to short term tenderness or sensitivity after treatment.

Suitability for different skin types is always confirmed by a doctor at consultation, taking into account your medical history, current medications and long term goals.

Treatment Journey

Your journey begins with a doctor led consultation. We talk through your concerns, medical history and previous treatments. Your doctor examines your face and neck at rest and in movement, then explains how ULTRAcel Q+ works and where it may give the most benefit. Together you decide how it fits into your broader ageing well plan.

  • You may be asked to avoid certain pain or anti inflammatory medications before treatment, where medically appropriate.

  • Keep the treatment area free from irritation, active breakouts or infections.

  • Arrive with clean skin and no active skincare, fake tan or heavy makeup on the treatment areas.

  • Let your doctor know about any implanted medical devices, new medications or recent cosmetic procedures.

  • We will explain how ULTRAcel Q+ feels, how long the session will take and how to plan for the days after treatment.
  • Some redness, tenderness or a feeling of tightness is common and usually settles over a few days.

  • Mild swelling or temporary numbness in treated areas can occur and typically improves on its own.

  • Most people can return to normal daily activities straight after ULTRAcel Q+.

  • Use gentle skincare, avoid harsh exfoliants and follow the product advice given by your clinician.

  • Wear daily broad spectrum sunscreen and avoid excessive heat or intense exercise immediately after treatment.

  • Contact the clinic if you experience unexpected discomfort or have any concerns, and attend review appointments as recommended.
